    Opinnäytetyö (AMK) Viestintä Elokuva 2010 Tiina Tanskanen TÄYDELLINEN MYSTEERI - Mysteerin anatomia Täydellisissä naisissa OPINNÄYTETYÖ (AMK) | TIIVISTELMÄ TURUN AMMATTIKORKEAKOULU Viestintä | Elokuva 6. toukokuuta 2010 | 31 sivua Vesa Kankaanpää Tanskanen, Tiina TÄYDELLINEN MYSTEERI Tarkastelen tässä kirjallisessa opinnäytetyössä Täydellisten naisten (Desperate Houwewives) ensimmäisen tuotantokauden mysteerijuonta käsikirjoitukselliselta kantilta. Täydelliset naiset on Abc Studiosin ja Cherry Productionsin tuottama tv-sarja, jota on vuoteen 2010 mennessä tuotettu kuusi kautta. Sarjan on luonut Marc Cherry. Aluksi käyn lyhyesti läpi mysteeritarinoiden historiaa ja pureudun sen jälkeen tutkimaan Täydellisten naisten ensimmäisen kauden mysteeriä, joka liittyy sarjan hahmon Mary-Alice Youngin itsemurhan syyn selvittämiseen. Tarkastelen mysteerin rakennetta käyttämällä hyväksi Syd Fieldin esittelemää rakenneparadigmaa. Selvitän mysteerin luomiseen käytettäviä käsikirjoituksellisia elementtejä ja pohdin, minkälaisia ongelmia mysteerin venytys 23 jakson kaudelle saattaa aiheuttaa. Yhteenvetona listaan tekijöitä, jotka ovat olennaisessa osassa mysteeritarinan kirjoittamisessa. Lopuksi pohdiskelen mysteerin ratkaisun ja sen luoman jännityksen suhdetta ja vertailen Täydellisten naisten mysteeriä muutamiin muihin tv-sarjoihin, jotka käyttävät samantapaista rakennetta.

  • 'Perfect Fit': Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity
    ‘Perfect Fit’: Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity Culture in Fashion Television Helen Warner Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) University of East Anglia School of Film and Television Studies Submitted July 2010 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author's prior, written consent. Helen Warner P a g e | 2 ABSTRACT According to the head of the American Costume Designers‟ Guild, Deborah Nadoolman Landis, fashion is emphatically „not costume‟. However, if this is the case, how do we approach costume in a television show like Sex and the City (1998-2004), which we know (via press articles and various other extra-textual materials) to be comprised of designer clothes? Once onscreen, are the clothes in Sex and the City to be interpreted as „costume‟, rather than „fashion‟? To be sure, it is important to tease out precise definitions of key terms, but to position fashion as the antithesis of costume is reductive. Landis‟ claim is based on the assumption that the purpose of costume is to tell a story. She thereby neglects to acknowledge that the audience may read certain costumes as fashion - which exists in a framework of discourses that can be located beyond the text. This is particularly relevant with regard to contemporary US television which, according to press reports, has witnessed an emergence of „fashion programming‟ - fictional programming with a narrative focus on fashion.

  • 'The Wall That Heals' Hits Nahant
    MONDAY JULY 19, 2021 By Tréa Lavery Swampscott Conservancy ITEM STAFF SWAMPSCOTT — The Swampscott Conservancy is advocating for a ban on balloons in the town, saying that they have a detrimental effect on the airing out its case environment and on animals that may ingest them. In a post on the Conservancy’s website, President Toni Bandrowicz ac- knowledged that balloons are a bright and fun way of celebrating happy against balloons events, but asked residents to consider the negative impacts as well as the positive. “To protect nature in our neighborhood, perhaps it’s time for Swamp- scott to consider such a by-law — or at least a policy that bans balloons at town-sponsored events, on town-owned properties, or for any events requir- ing town approval,” Bandrowicz said. “The town should promote the use of non-disposable, reusable decorations for such events, not balloons and other single-use plastic decorations.” A handful of communities in Massachusetts have already enacted similar rules, including Chatham, Everett, Nantucket and Provincetown. In 2019, State Representative Sarah Peake of Provincetown introduced a bill that would ban “the sale, distribution and release of any type of balloon, includ- ing, but not limited to, plastic, latex or mylar, lled with any type of lighter BALLOONS, A3 Lynn, Revere and MBTA mapping out transit plan By Allysha Dunnigan ITEM STAFF The Massachusetts Bay Transporta- tion Authority (MBTA) announced its collaboration with municipal partners, including Revere and Lynn, for a series of bus priority projects that will construct up to 4.8 miles of bus lanes — and other pro-transit infrastructure upgrades — to improve bus speed and reliability as the region re-opens from COVID-19-related regulations.

  • Desperate Housewives a Lot Goes on in the Strange Neighborhood of Wisteria Lane
    Desperate Housewives A lot goes on in the strange neighborhood of Wisteria Lane. Sneak into the lives of five women: Susan, a single mother; Lynette, a woman desperately trying to b alance family and career; Gabrielle, an exmodel who has everything but a good m arriage; Bree, a perfect housewife with an imperfect relationship and Edie Britt , a real estate agent with a rocking love life. These are the famous five of Des perate Housewives, a primetime TV show. Get an insight into these popular charac ters with these Desperate Housewives quotes. Susan Yeah, well, my heart wants to hurt you, but I'm able to control myself! How would you feel if I used your child support payments for plastic surgery? Every time we went out for pizza you could have said, "Hey, I once killed a man. " Okay, yes I am closer to your father than I have been in the past, the bitter ha tred has now settled to a respectful disgust. Lynette Please hear me out this is important. Today I have a chance to join the human rac e for a few hours there are actual adults waiting for me with margaritas. Loo k, I'm in a dress, I have makeup on. We didn't exactly forget. It's just usually when the hostess dies, the party is off. And I love you because you find ways to compliment me when you could just say, " I told you so." Gabrielle I want a sexy little convertible! And I want to buy one, right now! Why are all rich men such jerks? The way I see it is that good friends support each other after something bad has happened, great friends act as if nothing has happened.

  • Title of Dissertation
    SETTING UP CAMP: IDENTIFYING CAMP THROUGH THEME AND STRUCTURE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Michael T. Schuyler January, 2011 Examining Committee Members: Cornelius B. Pratt, Advisory Chair, Strategic Communication John A. Lent, Broadcasting, Telecommunications & Mass Media Paul Swann, Film & Media Arts Roberta Sloan, External Member, Theater i © Copyright 2010 by Michael T. Schuyler All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Camp scholarship remains vague. While academics don’t shy away from writing about this form, most exemplify it more than define it. Some even refuse to define it altogether, arguing that any such attempt causes more problems than it solves. So, I ask the question, can we define camp via its structure, theme and character types? After all, we can do so for most other genres, such as the slasher film, the situation comedy or even the country song; therefore, if camp relies upon identifiable character types and proliferates the same theme repeatedly, then, it exists as a narrative system. In exploring this, I find that, as a narrative system, though, camp doesn’t add to the dominant discursive system. Rather, it exists in opposition to it, for camp disseminates the theme that those outside of heteronormativity and acceptability triumph not in spite of but because of what makes them “different,” “othered” or “marginalized.” Camp takes many forms. So, to demonstrate its reliance upon a certain structure, stock character types and a specific theme, I look at the overlaps between seemingly disperate examples of this phenomenon.

Utilizando como eje central un personaje de la conocida serie televisiva Mujeres desesperadas, Bree Van de Kamp, examino en este ensayo como identidades y comidas se crean y se recrean, se funden y se confunden en el variopinto vecindario de Wisteria Lane dando como resultado una mezcla de culturas en un intento por subvertir/cuestionar lo establecido, lo heredado y abrazar una diversidad de difícil digestión ya que la sociedad estadounidense incongruentemente ha absorbido, digerido y aceptado como propios los platos típicos de diferentes culturas y al mismo tiempo todavía hoy encuentra indigesto más de un plato foráneo. Palabras clave: Mujeres desesperadas, comida, identidad, Bree Van de Kamp, postfeminismo. ABSTRACT According to Carole Counihan, «food is a prism that absorbs and reflects a host of cultural phenomena».

    Women’s Role in the Series Desperate Housewives: A Feminist Perspective Cholawat Prawalpatamakul, Khon Kaen University, Thailand Suban Keowkanya, Khon Kaen University, Thailand The Asian Conference on Education & International Development 2017 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract Desperate Housewives, created by Marc Cherry and aired on the ABC channel for eight seasons, is considered a representation of gender, specifically femininity, on the television (Bignell, 2008). Its plot focuses on the lives of four women (Bree Van De Kamp, Lynette Scavo, Gabriel Solis and Susan Delfino) who represent the internal struggles of the average woman, such as disempowerment, restrictions, and the confusing relationships of modern women in society (Coward, 2006; Sayeau, 2006; Morgan, 2007). With the emergence of the feminist movement, it is skeptical on how the series portray the four female protagonists when viewed through the lens of feminist perspective. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to critically analyze the women’s roles in the series by using feminist theory as a lens. The eighth season of the series was selected since this season is the latest and shows the conclusion of all the characters. The results of the analysis showed all aspects of women's roles which reflected feminist theory in many ways. The four female protagonists portray the roles of housewife, mother, and daughter. The oppression, the gender performance, the sexual pleasure, the female friendship, and the contradiction are found and presented which can reflect the feminist theory clearly. Keywords: women, role, feminism, Desperate Housewives iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction Desperate Housewives was broadcasted on ABC Channel for eight seasons.
